Correlation of Platelet Volume Indices (Pvi) With Spectrum of Coronary Artery Disease: A Prospective Study in Indian Scenario

Abstract

BACKGROUNDCoronary artery disease is new epidemic of the current millennium and is the leading cause of death worldwide. Platelet size reflects its activity and have definitive role in causing its pathogenesis and its complications as larger platelets are metabolically and enzymatically more active. The aim of this study was to study Platelet Volume Indices (PVI) in the spectrum of coronary artery diseases.
